Tim McGraw adds this to the end of "Real Good Man' sometimes.
Let chords ring with repeated lines in chorus.
I like to carry the last 'ride' in final chorus through the chord progression DCGDD
I was thumbing my way back from Montgomery
F
with my guitar on my back
G
when a man pulled up beside me
D
in an antique Cadillac
D
He was dressed like 1950
F
half drunk and hollowed eyed
G
said its a long walk back to Nashville
D
would you like a ride son
D
So I jumped into the front seat
F
and he turned on the radio
G
and the sad songs coming out those speakers
D
was a solid country gold
D
Well I noticed the stranger was a ghost white pale
F
when he asked me for a light
G
then I knew there was something strange
D
about this ride
chorus:
C
He said mister can you make folks
G
cry when you play and
D
sing
D
have you paid your dues
can you moan the blues
A
can you bend those guitar strings
C
And son can you make folks
G
feel what you feel
D
inside....
C
cuz if your big star bound
G
let me warn you its a
D
long hard ride
C (one stroke)
if your big star bound
G (one stroke)
let me warn you its a
D
long hard ride
DCGD
verse 2
D
Well he cried just south of Nashville
F
and he turned that car around
G

D

D
So I jumped outa that ole Cadillac
F
and said mister many thanks
G
he said you don't have to call mister, mister
D
the whole world calls me HANK
